congenital adrenal hyperplasia - abbreviation Cx

[Doko]

sorry for a minor question, but when looking at FA, i noticed that under the CAH section, they keep saying "Cx"

does that mean clinical? doesn't that usually mean cervix or culture?

What's the context? It could be cortisol I guess.

I think it's Cortex.

I think it's Cortex.

That is incorrect, old sport.

Cx means "characterized by." If you look at that page, cx is followed by a list of symptoms.

Here are some abbreviations:

Cx: characterized by
Dx: diagnosis
Px: prognosis
Rx: treatment
Sx: symptoms (not sex)

I was just reading that page, I also think they refer to clinical stuff.

sorry to waste a thread on this.

FYI to everyone - it means "complications" based off the acronymn chart on the back.

gl everyone!

I stand corrected. I probably should have looked at the page to which the OP was referring before responding. My apologies.
